BSc Management (Innovation, Strategy and Entrepreneurship)
About this course
Management with a focus on innovation, strategy, and entrepreneurship addresses some of the most important questions in contemporary business: how do organisations generate and implement new ideas, how do they position themselves to compete over the long term, and how do new ventures emerge, grow, and create value? These questions sit at the heart of economic dynamism, and studying them means engaging with both the theoretical frameworks that illuminate organisational behaviour and the practical realities of competing in fast-moving markets. The combination draws on economics, psychology, and sociology alongside management theory to develop a sophisticated understanding of how organisations and their environments interact. At the University of Manchester, this four-year full-time Management degree gives you the depth and breadth of a research-intensive business education in one of the UK's leading management schools. You will develop understanding of strategic management, organisational theory, entrepreneurial processes, innovation management, and the ways in which firms navigate uncertainty and change. The programme situates these themes within broader economic and social contexts, exploring how institutions, regulation, and culture shape entrepreneurial activity and strategic choices. You will develop analytical and problem-solving skills, the ability to evaluate evidence critically, and the communication capabilities to make and defend strategic arguments. Manchester's connections with business and its location in one of the UK's most entrepreneurially active cities add practical dimensions to the academic programme. Graduates pursue careers in management consultancy, corporate strategy, entrepreneurship, venture investment, product management, and leadership roles across the public and private sectors. The emphasis on innovation and strategy is particularly relevant for those interested in technology-driven businesses, social enterprise, and organisational change. Further study options include MBA programmes, specialist master's degrees in innovation management, entrepreneurship, or strategy, and research degrees for those wishing to pursue academic careers in management.
